ON BLACK POWER
Forum Features Howard Fuller
EYESORE OF THE WEEK: Somewhere among this maze of trees and
bushes is a human head of a six-foot student — can you find it? On the
other side of these overgrown and unkept hedges which run between
Market Street and Hodgin Hall are buildings, cars, and people. As to
whether these hedges were meant to blot out Market Street or Hodgin
Hall is not known: however, if allowed to continue they shall succeed in
doing both.
The National Student Association
of the University of North Carolina
at Greensboro will sponsor a Black
Power Forum November 1-3, and
highlighting the event will be
Howard Fuller, director of Community Organization of the North
Carolina Fund. Fuller is also an instructor at the University of North
Carolina at Chapel Hill. Recent controversy over his appointment as
lecturer at the University has given
him wide publicity.
The program will consist of lectures, panel discussions, group discussions, as well as key question
and answer periods. Panel members will include students from colleges and universities throughout
the nation. There will be an oppor
tunity for questions from the floor
during both the panel discussions
and lecture periods.
The format of the program is as
follows:
Wednesday — November 1
Topic: BLACK POWER, PAST
AND PRESENT
2:00-4:00 Panel: Black Power,

Sloan Foundation Aids In Million-Dollar Drive KamS Are Plowed Under
Aggies Dump 'em 54-8
A&T has received a challenge
award of $30,000, from the Alfred
P. Sloan Foundation of New York
City, the first major gift in the
University's campaign to raise $1
million.
Announcement of the gift was
made at a press conference in
New York City.
Given on a matching basis to
stimulate contributions from other
sources, A&T will have to raise a
similar amount to qualify for the
entire grant. The gift may be
matched dollar for dollar from
alumni contributions, or one dollar
for two, given by foundations, corporations and friends in North Carolina, or by a combination of both.
A&T was offered the opportunity
as a member of the Cooperative
College Development Program
(CCDP), a group of 30 public and
private colleges and universities
with predominant Negro enrollments. The organization is sponsored by the Phelps-Stokes Fund,
also of New York City.
The award is a part of a $1
million gift by the Sloan Founda
tion to CCDP members. The balance of $100,000 will be divided into
four equal amounts to be given also
to those institutions which demonstrate superiority in fund raising
performance.
The institutions may qualify for
the gifts as early as January 1,
1968. A&T has just begun its annual Alumni Giving Program
which aims at raising $75,000 on
or before March 31, 1968.
Dr. Lewis C. Dowdy, president
of A&T, was present at the formal
presentation of the gift.
In a statement to reporters at
the press conference, Dr. Dowdy
hailed the gift as a "timely expression of confidence in A&T and its
program." He added, "I am con
fident that the loyal support from
alumni from all parts of the nation
and from friends in North Carolina
will enable A&T to quickly qualify
for the gift."
A&T participated in a similar
program, supported by the Sloan
Foundation and as a new member
of the CCDP in 1965, and qualified
for a matching gift of $33,333. The
institution raised its quota six
months following its admission to
the organization.
"The overall success of the first
phase of CCDP," said Everett
Case, president of the Sloan Foundation, "has persuaded the Foundation that a two-year renewal and
modest expansion of the program
would contribute further to the progress of these institutions."

FASHIONS
Twiggy Look To Be Replaced
By WILLIE
Pendleton, one of America's
mills, makes virgin wool sportswear that combines rich good
looks with lasting comfort and
quality. These garments' colorful personalities owe their unfading clarity of tone to quality
dyes, cold, clear Northwest
water, plus wool's ability to capture — and hold — coloring in
a manner approached by no
other fabric.
All are available at better
men's stores the nation over.
The American way with wool is
typified by Pendleton's inspired
execution of the total look of
sportswear. Combining complete
coordination with clean design
through the entire sportswear
spectrum, Pendletons appeal
to the young in spirit.
Pendleton quality is the result
of experience in producing woolens. The styling captures —
surely and deftly — the essence
of today's dynamic spirit.
In the Novcm- ■ ■ \p-?> '**
ber issue ofi
Esquire, there is i
a prediction that
the waist - length
parka will be
very popular this
winter. Season after snowy season,
skiing, speed records are being
broken, usually
by flashing young
Frenchmen like
Jean - Claude Kil-
ly. One reason for
this has been the
development o f
the minimally
cumberson clothing.
MAE LEACH
Now "Skidress" in France has
produced a parka that is perhaps unmatched for freedom of
movement. The real trick is
that its shorter length eliminates
anything that might impede the
flow and swivel of the hips. On
the slopes or off, this design will
certainly be a part of men's
wear for this season.
With the ladies, all signs point
to the shaping of curves. This
season will usher in new body-
lines with emphasis on curve.
The "Twiggy look" will be replaced by the sweet perfection
of a Greek or Roman goddess. It
is so unfortunate that designers
fail to realize the great number
of females they design for fall
into neither category. Since we
do wear the styles they work so
hard to create, it is really no
problem for these designers. We
have the problem of deciding
whether or not to wear them.
More often than not, we accept
rather than reject.
The shirtdress is back, but
with a belt. Straight leg lanky
pants are also back. They replace the once famous bell-bottoms. The colorful and eyecatching pop artistry has yet to be
replaced. However, signs are
pointing to a tapering off in enthusiasm for this artistry.
In the coming months pale
colors (pinks, yellows, violets
and blues) are going to receive
quite a lot of attention in forthcoming collections.
Aggies assembled in the vicinity of
Cooper Hall last Thursday. The
eight were enroute to Chicago,
Illinois to attend the Forty-third Annual Conference of the Associated
Collegiate Press and National Council of College Publications Advisers
held in the Conrad Hilton Hotel.
The enthusiastic group — Stanley
Johnson, Prince Legree, Jesse
Lanier, Nancy Waddell, Larry
Wrenn, Pamela Wall, Kermit Som-
erville, and I — boarded an Eastern Airliner that would take us to
our destination. As the airliner
climbed higher and higher, we
could see a magnificent view of
the Greensboro area. This site was
of interest to all eight of us.
After a rather brief stay in the
air, we arrived at the Chicago airport and caught a limousine to the
Hilton Hotel. On entering the building, we were surrounded by a mob
of students from various colleges
and universities in the United
States and Canada; all of them
were for the same general purpose.
After penetrating the mob, we were
confronted by a Frenchman behind
the desk who appeared to have gotten a Uttle dismayed at the mob of
students seeking accommodations.
After being assigned, we went to
our rooms for a brief rest while
our editor, Stanley Johnson, officially registered us.
Later on that evening, we attended the opening convocation for the
ACP. The guest speaker, Senator
Gale McGee of Wyoming, spoke on
"Vietnam: In Perspective." During
his address, several Hippies stood
up in protest. While the Hippies
were standing silently, a group of
Naval Cadets walked in and occupied the seats that were previously occupied by the Hippies. This
phenomenon was followed by a
favorable applause from the audience. The rest of th" evening was
spent by students getting acquainted with each other and having a
good time.
The following morning we began
a day of attending discussions and
workshops. Perhaps the most interesting and informative discussion
was on "Making the News Timely

The Aggies who, have had trouble
all season, found the winning punch
in their 54-8 victory over the Winston-Salem State College Rams. In
previous encounters the fearsome
defensive unit was the main factor
but Saturday the offense really
gave the fans a thrilling victory.
It was a day for victory, and the
Aggies were up for it as they got
off to a six-point lead in the opening
minutes of the game. Daryle Cher-

ry returned a punt fifty yards for
the Aggies' first touchdown. The defense then scored two more touchdowns as their captain, Elvin
Bethea, intercepted a pass and the
255 pound all-American ran it back
28 yards for another touchdown
tally. Freshman Donald Thomas
scored the last defensive touchdown for the Aggies as he ran back
an interception 35 yards.
The big difference was the offensive punch that the Aggies had.
With Merl Code leading the offense,
he showed his form as he had done
in high school when he threw for a
25-yard touchdown. With a well-
mixed offense, he kept the Rams
off balance. The Code to Pearson
combination was the "bread and
butter" play for the offense. Willie
Pearson with his speed, hands, and
good moves struck fear into the
Rams' defensive backs as they
were unable to contain the 191
pound junior from Winston-Salem.
Pearson caught two touchdown
passes from Code and made several
clutch third-down catches thgt enabled the mighty Aggie offense to
move on.
Aside from Pearson and Code,
the offense was sparked by Thomas
Blue, a muscularly built fullback
who punched in and out of holes for
good yardage. From three yards
out, the big fullback surged
through the Rams' line for a touchdown. Down inside the five again,
Blue got the call; but Merl Code,
calling plays like Johnny Unitas,
put the ball in the air and his fullback took it in the corner of the
end zone.
The last Aggie score came on a
19 yard pass from quarter back
Turner to end Thomas Sanders
who put a dynamic move on the
defender that shook him lose and
enabled Sanders to trot into the
end zone untouched.
The Rams tried with all their
effort to score but the hardnose
defense wouldn't give any ground.
They were able to score in the
second period on 15 yard pass
from Epps to Jennings. Epps then
ran for the PAT.
Throngs lined the streets to watch A&T's most successful homecoming
parade. Among the parade watchers were Aggies — present, past, and
"future" — and friends.
